I wonder if rclone would have behaved any better than the web UI.

Sorry if I'm reiterating known point, when the storage is full, API will stop working, so you won't be able to download files at all.

So you are completely stuck if you have too many files. Like I had. I used to keep pictures on onedrive, and used 6 user license. When the license expired, they locked me out completely. I couldn't download my own files! And the web UI is a crap.

So had to pay again for a year, this time I backed up all files locally.

This sounds completely insane, and I won't be using OneDrive for non-throwaway uses again until it's fixed.

(OneDrive is my Arq backup destination since I have no idea what else to put the storage towards, but now I'm considering my options.)

It's not a bug, Its how it works, from my experience.

rclone usually works much better for all those cloud storages with terrible UIs/native clients
